Some advice please:
I am relatively new to the mandolin and have an Eastman 505, which I am happy with. I have tried several different brands of string and string gauge, and several different picks, it’s true I get a different tone with different strings and picks, but when I fret the E string, I struggle to get any decent volume out of it. I expect it could be my novice technique, but does anybody have any advice or tips on how to get more life out of my E string without picking super hard?
Thanks
